using toothpaste? I've read online that this method works, can anyone confirm this?

Someone told me that toothpaste worked like 20 years ago. I've tried it on a few cds and it never worked for me.

Just tried it and it doesn't work, although it makes the CD look shiny. laugh.gif I'm just pissed because I bought a used copy of this CD and it won't rip 4 of the songs to my PC because it's scratched. eh.gif

Now it won't rip them because it's covered in toothpaste.

I didn't one of my CDs with music on it, I just used a CD-R.

I just put my VT disc on the concrete, placed my foot on it and moved it around vigorously. Will let you know if Crest cleans it up....
